LONDON, Dec. 12.-The stability Of
cabinet headed by Senator Tirard and
composed of such men as can be found
to serve under his premiership is
doubted in all quarters. NJ. Tirard
himself can only be regarded, in the cir
cumstanc es of his selection, as mere
makeshift, and naturally any ministry
he may bring together must be held in
like estimation. The cause of the fail
ure thus far has been III greater de-
gree due to the course of procedure
more than to any other circumstance or
reason. The method pursued has been
something like this: The gentleman
summoned by the president to
construct government visits each
of his prospective colleagues
separately and without difficulty OBJ
tains his consent to accept the portfolio
rendered to him, but when each is con-
fronted by his confreres he discovers
some political element represented with
which he cannot act i'll concord and
promptly declines to serve. Neverthe-
less, nj. Tirard tonight seems likely to
under his leadership, and his govern
ment may hold together short time
long enough, at least, to bridge over the
present discomfort and business depres-
sion. The Journal Officiel tomorrow
will publish the list of the new cabinet
as follows:
NJ Tirard, president of the council. minis
ter of finance and minister of posts and tele-
graphs.
NJ Fallieres, minister of justice
NJ. Flourens, minister of foreign affairs.
NJ. Sarrien minister of the interior.
M. Dautresme, minister OF commerce.
NJ. Loubet, minister of public works.
NJ. De Mahy, minister OF marine.
NJ. Viette, minister of agriculture.
NJ. Faye, minister of public instruction.
Gen. Logerot, minister of war.
OF THE NEW CABINET
NM. TRADE, Fallieres, Faye, De Mahy,
Loubet and Dautresme belong to the
union of the left, and NM. Sarrien and
Viette belong to the more advanced
group. NJ. Flourens and Gen. LogerOt
are not members Of the chamber of
deputies. The new cabinet held a meet
ing at the Elysee palace this evening,
when President Carnot read his message
to parliament. The message is lengthy.
and refers to political questions. point
ing out the path which the president
would like to see parliament enter.
After reminding the members
of the chambers that his
election was due to the spirit
of conciliatiOn produced among the
members of the congress, he expresses
the hope that the same sentiment will
continue to prevail in both houses. The
passage relating to Frances foreign
policy is couched in the most pacific
terms. The cabinets reply to the mes
sage will declare that the governments
desire is to commence the exhibition
year with peace abroad and concord at
home, and will demand as question of
confidence three provisional credits.
The new cabinet is moderate Repub-
lican body. M. Tirard is opposed to the
autonomy of Paris and to the separa-
ton of church and state. NJ. Ferry has
almost recovered from his wounds.
